skills as well as with the layout on your blog. Is this a
paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Anyway keep up the excellent quality
writing, it’s rare to see a nice blog like this one these days.

If you get a chance, maybe you can contact Rites of Zion/Temple of Boom (or any other big camp of your choosing) and volunteer to help them dial in their LNT efforts. You could potentially make a HUGE difference.

Tue, 04 Oct 2011 06:15:00 +0000http://blog.burningman.com/?p=15843#comment-28133Temple of Boom, you guys have an amazing sound system, and you brought amazing artists. You danced my fanny into the ground. Next year I’ll be there on Monday to help clean up rather than enduring the exodus.

But just one more guy won’t make the difference we as a community need. I think Simon had a great idea up there. That sound system would make one heck of a PA. Announce that Beats Antique has decided they want to hear Rick Astley until they get a pound of moop. Hell make theatre out of it. The beat won’t drop until the moop scale tips? Ooooh! Co-ordinate with all the other big sound camps: create a mooping hour where only calliope music is played across all the big sound camps until the moop tax is paid. You know the DPW would freaking love being involved with that: demanding tribute paid in trash. You could have a sarcastic yoga instructor could talk about grounding yourself by bending over and picking up some moop. Fuck with people a little. Make it funny.

That would at least get it picked up. I for one would happily add another dozen trash bags to my trailer. What about a huge “please take a bag of moop” sign, or an entry to that effect in the What Where When? I’d pick up a few at least. I know a bunch of other guys who’d take a few, too.

Cheryl – Yes again!! Great idea. All we gotta do is get these things into the What Where When…

Hi Ocean!! I’m assuming GeoTem was the red zone outside Disorient. If that’s correct, we found a lot of washers and metal hardware, plus general rave MOOP. We knew that y’all had done line sweeps, which is part of why we audited you — we wanted to show everyone that big sound camps can leave their sites green. Your cleanup effort was excellent. I think maybe next time a magnet rake and a landscaping rake would seal the deal, but really you did great (and you know it).

Nick Collide – “Certainly the Moop Map has better intentions than compliance through shame.” – It does, and I’m sorry you feel shamed, but we just don’t have the staff to accurately document every yellow area. Yellow zones — as Bernie can tell you — are usually full of a mix of things. Maybe it was buried, or maybe you didn’t consider it MOOP. Maybe this can help you: http://blog.burningman.com/2011/09/news/moop-map-live-2011s-top-moop/ Our job is just to report what we find, and I’m sorry it felt like you were getting “called out.” Please don’t react badly by blaming the Restoration crew. You may notice that the map image I’ve posted doesn’t show enough detail for people to read camp names (excepting the biggest camps). That was done on purpose, specifically to avoid “calling people out” in public. Next year, make Bernie your LNT guru and he’ll tell you how the Restoration crew operates, so you can get back in the green. Thanks for caring, and don’t worry! At least it wasn’t red.

Mon, 03 Oct 2011 01:59:46 +0000http://blog.burningman.com/?p=15843#comment-28071As AntiM mentioned above, the folks at The Booby Bar spent hours every single day mooping, as did every other camp in Terminal City Village. I think we still had people on playa as late as Wednesday or Thursday working the grid back and forth (not counting Bernie who stayed on after that – way to go Bernie!). So when we got a yellow we were, to say the least, surprised. Our (or I should say my) issue is that there doesn’t seem to be a way to find out why we got the yellow. No reasons equal no suggestions for improvement. Certainly the Moop Map has better intentions than compliance through shame. All we know is that we worked very hard and got (our first ever) yellow for our efforts. Looking for suggestions? That would be mine: if you’re going to call out a theme camp for leaving moop behind you should at least tell them what the moop was, so they can look for ways to add that to their plan next year.

Sun, 02 Oct 2011 07:48:44 +0000http://blog.burningman.com/?p=15843#comment-28039Speaking as the LNT lead of Disorient, as well as someone who spent two years on the Playa Restoration crew, on Day 3 of Disorient disengage, we had about 30-40 people participate in a line sweep of the GeoTem installation, and we walked out about 200 feet from 2 o clock. When we started this sweep, this site had already had a preliminary sweep on Day 1 of disengage, and I would have given it a yellow after that first sweep given the amount of moop we picked up on Day 3 – so I’m interested to know what kind of moop was on the GeoTem site?

Sun, 02 Oct 2011 03:34:49 +0000http://blog.burningman.com/?p=15843#comment-28032There should be a set time every day (2:00? ) for everyone to take 15 minutes to moop their location where ever they are on the Playa. Also folks need to stop stashing their trash at the art installations !

Sunday, 2-5pm. Calling all people with extra water/alcohol/snacks. Meet at the 2 or 10 o’clock corner of the city and hand that shit out in exchange for MOOP removal. Help clean up the soundcamps.
